Genenta Science S.p.A. (NASDAQ:GNTA), headquartered in Milan, Italy, stands out as a prime candidate for inclusion in the ten best Italian stocks to buy now due to its innovative approach in the biotechnology sector. As a clinical-stage biotech company, Genenta Science S.p.A. (NASDAQ:GNTA) focuses on developing hematopoietic stem cell gene therapies to treat solid tumors. Its flagship product, Temferon, currently undergoing Phase 1/2a clinical trials, shows promise in treating glioblastoma multiforme, a highly aggressive form of brain cancer. The company’s broader ambitions include utilizing Temferon for other tumor types, including hepatocellular carcinoma and intra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma, giving it significant growth potential in a lucrative market.

Genenta Science S.p.A. (NASDAQ:GNTA) financial metrics further demonstrate its potential. With an estimated upside potential of 657.58%, the latest average share price target stands at $25, making it an attractive option for investors seeking significant returns. Despite its early-stage nature, Genenta Science S.p.A. (NASDAQ:GNTA) leadership in cutting-edge gene therapy and its focus on difficult-to-treat cancers offer strong upside potential.

However, as with many clinical-stage biotech firms, Genenta has not yet generated revenue, and its net losses have been increasing over the years. The company reported losses of €11.6 million in 2023, up from €8.5 million in 2022 and €5.5 million in 2021. The bulk of these losses stem from the company’s heavy investment in research and development, particularly in advancing its product candidates like Temferon through the clinical trial process.

As of December 31, 2023, Genenta Science S.p.A. (NASDAQ:GNTA) had cash reserves of €18.8 million, providing enough liquidity to sustain its operations for the next 12 months. However, the company acknowledges that it will require additional funding to continue its operations and pursue growth. This need for external capital presents a potential risk, but it is also an opportunity for investors to get in early before potential partnerships or collaborations with major pharmaceutical companies, which could propel the stock. Genenta Science S.p.A. (NASDAQ:GNTA) innovative platform, financial metrics, and future potential make it a compelling stock to consider in the biotech space.
